The Walkley Foundation will soon announce changes to its sponsorship coverage, it says, capping off a week that saw some of the publishing industry’s most decorated cartoonists boycott the Walkley Awards as a consequence of its partnership with Ampol.
The declaration was made in a statement issued by the Walkley Foundation on Saturday, in the wake of mounting calls made by cartoonists from across the information business for the journalism non-profit to stay taking donations from major polluters.
